A teacher, Michael Maynard, from Lecanto High School in Citrus County was dismissed after allegations of mistreating a student were made against him. The teacher was found to have separated classes into ‘smart’ and ‘dumb’ groups, made inappropriate comments, and a previous record of verbal abuse against students. The teacher resigned before any disciplinary action was taken, but the district did report the incident to the state Education Practices Commission.
